Ning Fengzhi received the emergency summoning order from Emperor Xue Ye, and immediately rushed over from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to enter the palace to discuss important matters.
Entering the palace, Ning Fengzhi was walking on the road and saw panic in the palace. The guards who were in charge of guarding the palace looked at the sky from time to time with fearful eyes, as if they were afraid that a strong man would suddenly come and kill them.
Resplendent, magnificent and luxurious palace hall.
The important officials and officials stood at the foot of the hall, and the two princes Xue Qinghe and Xue Beng were on both sides of the throne.
The atmosphere in the hall was very solemn.
When Emperor Xue Ye saw Ning Fengzhi walking, he raised his eyelids, and deep regret flashed in his eyes.
Ning Fengzhi has always been his think tank, and many national affairs have been discussed with Ning Fengzhi, and Ning Fengzhi has also tried his best to help him make suggestions.
But this time, Emperor Xue Ye didn't listen to Ning Fengzhi's suggestion.
Ning Fengzhi advised him not to let the royal family intervene in the Clear Sky Sect's butcher meeting too early.
However, he tacitly allowed Prince Xue Xing to communicate with the Clear Sky Sect, and he did not prevent Prince Xue Xing and Prince Xue Beng from secretly going to Clear Sky Sect to participate in the Slaughter Business Conference.
The benefits of the business alliance are too huge and too tempting.
The royal family of the Heaven Dou Empire can make hundreds of millions of gold soul coins every year from the transaction tax of business alliance goods alone.
It is conceivable that the wealth of the business alliance that can be scraped must be extremely considerable.
In this way, the Heaven Dou Empire would have more funds to build a strong army.
It will become more advantageous to fight against Spirit Hall or the secret.
As everyone knows, the most terrifying opponent is actually not the Spirit Hall, but the Pan Continent Business Alliance!
I thought that I could get a large piece of meat, but I didn't expect to cut them off with a knife.
The survival of the Xue Family Empire now only depends on the mood of the business alliance leader.
Obviously, the mood of the business alliance leader is not very good.
"See Your Majesty." Ning Fengzhi was about to kneel.
The Great Emperor Xue Ye waved his hand and said in an old and weak voice: "No need to give a big gift, let's start discussing important matters. Xue Beng, tell everyone about the situation."
"Yes, Father." Xue Beng replied.
Xue Beng's face was also ugly, indicating that what he was about to say was not good news.
Ning Fengzhi's heart froze, could it be that the Xue Beng Office smashed?
The Great Emperor Xue Ye chose to let Xue Beng take charge, and on behalf of the emperor sent the news of the seal of the business alliance leader Wang Jue to the business alliance, hoping to appease the business alliance leader and allow Xue Beng to have further communication with the business alliance leader.
The imperial title is a great gift for ordinary people of common origin. It is expected that the business alliance leader will readily accept it, and communicate with Xue Beng in a friendly way, and then make an appointment to enter the palace for an audience. Above this hall, officially accept it. Emperor Xue Ye's edict.
At that time, there will be a grand royal ceremony.
And the business alliance leader named the queen, and the relationship with Xue Beng was also strengthened, which was conducive to the growth of Xue Beng's lineage.
This kind of thing fell into Xue Beng's hands, and Ning Fengzhi could see that it was Emperor Xue Ye's partiality.
From Ning Fengzhi's point of view, it was naturally his disciple Xue Qinghe who could handle it better, but with Xue Beng's character and ability to do things, he was worried.
Now, this fear may become a reality.
Xue Beng took a deep breath and said: "The first thing, the business alliance leader refused to accept the title of title."
Ning Fengzhi secretly said, it really was a mess!
There was a sudden burst of exclamations in the hall.
"From ancient times to the present, I have never heard of anyone who refused to accept the throne."
"The throne is the highest honor for anyone. The business alliance leader is a commoner. This is equivalent to ascending to the sky in one step. He actually refused?"
"And not only the throne, but also the fief, and he has the opportunity to become the king of a kingdom in the future."
"In addition to honoring the ancestors, this is still a hereditary system, which is passed down from generation to generation, and the blessings continue."
All the ministers in the hall had different discussions.
I really don't understand how anyone would refuse the throne that they dreamed of and couldn't get by desperately fighting for it.
Some generals, who have won a hundred battles and accumulated immortal great deeds, can't get the imperial title.
Emperor Xue Ye was able to win over talents and major sects. The highest level and the most effective method was to confer the title of nobility.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect Master gave it to the Marquis.
The Sect Master of the Clear Sky Sect gave the title of Duke.
This title was inherited by the new Sect Master Tang Xiao. Even if the Clear Sky Sect was hidden from the world, it was still considered an aristocratic family.
Considering that there were two peerless Douluos enshrined under the head of the business alliance, and he easily destroyed the Clear Sky Sect, Emperor Xue Ye must have given a title higher than that of the Clear Sky Sect to appear sincere, so he gritted his teeth and gave the highest award. King.
When the emperor gives the king, they are extremely cautious.
The king is fundamentally different from the Duke, Hou, Bo, Zi, and Male.
Once he becomes a king, he becomes a top noble next to the royal family.
Especially this kind of king with fief, not just titles and honors.
In the fief, you can recruit troops, have the right to set taxes, appoint city lords and other officials at all levels, etc., which is equivalent to having your own small political power.
"If the business alliance leader doesn't even want the king, what else can he give?" Qian Renxue couldn't understand why someone would refuse to make the king.
Lu Feng rejected the baron. She could understand that Lu Feng really needed more time to focus on his training and experience at his age.
Moreover, the baron is more of a symbol of honor, and there is a world of difference from the king.
"What is he trying to do?" Ning Fengzhi was confused.
Xue Beng's voice said with some panic: "He has already started to do it, and this is the second thing. The business alliance leader issued an order to kill the leader, and any individual or force who violated the business alliance will be killed. Including King Haagen-Dazs in the Heaven Dou Empire, and the lords of six cities."
"What... the business alliance dares to be so bold, to threaten to kill the city lord appointed by the emperor himself, and even threaten the king of the duchy, how dare he? It makes no sense, can he fail to rebel, King Haagen-Dazs, after all, it is our emperor's Nephew, it's so crazy!" A white-haired minister shouted angrily.
But more people looked at him like a fool.
"Scholar Shi, the Merchant Alliance has killed my uncle, Prince Xue Xing," Prince Xue Qinghe reminded.
This scholar of history is upright and knowledgeable. He is on the side of supporting Prince Xue Qinghe, so Qian Renxue feels that it is necessary to take care of him.
The university scholar who was a little lost in reading, heard Qian Renxue's reminder, and his breathing stagnated.
The business alliance is dedicated to the Divine Sword Douluo, who cares who you are when you kill someone, the younger brother of the Great Emperor Xue Ye, he can kill him at will, and it doesn't matter who you are the nephew of the Great Emperor Xue Ye.
Shi Da pondered for a while, and then said again: "Could it be that... are they allowed to mess around? If the Kingdom of Haagen-Dazs is destroyed. Our Heaven Dou Empire will lose face?"
Xue Beng glanced at Shi Da Shi angrily, and said sadly: "It's not a question of face, but whether we can survive. The third thing, right now, the business alliance leader is in Tian Dou City, and it's also a question of whether we can survive. It means that the worship of the business alliance is likely to be by the side of the business alliance leader..."
